Will You Dance With Me?





She hears the music playing

The melody is so loud.

She wonders where it's coming from~ it must be near.

Her heart is racing.

Her thoughts are chasing, the memory of a man, she once saw here.

Would he dance with her?

She remembered feeling how wonderful it would be, to be wrapped within his arms.

His eyes smiled, but she doubted.

For why would a man such as him choose her?

She froze in the place.

He was near.

She tried to utter words.

 He's passed her with out a glance.

She had stumbled at her chance.

Now here she is within these walls.

It's been years...all was thought lost.

But here again is her and him.

There he is standing with a grin.

Will she fail to catch his eye?

Will she again leave wondering "why?"

He's once again within her space.

Her heart thunders.

Her hands shake.

Her voice barely a whisper

She looks into his eyes and exhales,

"Will you dance with me?"

Life

A fish who longs to be in water A bird who can not wait to fly A snake who wishes to recoil  A mole searching for better ground Sky so lifted to give space Moon afraid to show his shape Hides behind a blanket of night Stars blink to share their light Oceans anger crashes down Beaches lying with the sand Rocks climb to stand tall Wind watches them all fall  Mountain tall enough to roar Let loose his inner being Earth was burned to begin again. Gave life back to the living.

It Begins With A Spark

It begins with a spark Ignites into a flame It charges through your chest It fills your lungs Every breath you take burns within your throat Your eyes water Your head spins Your legs are too heavy to move You reach out... Hoping to touch something Hoping to feel something Needing to hold anything for support The tips of your fingers reach out a little farther It's difficult to see through the fog And then... Something is there Something to give you hope that not all is lost There it is, almost out of reach, but still there With one last belief in your own heart, you take that leap of faith And hold onto the one thing you believe can save you. You leap forward~ ~Towards Love!

Closed Heart

There's a door over there no one uses any more. Some have forgotten it exists. The locks were changed.  Dust moved in. Not even a strong wind could get you in. The keeper cries, occasionally. For once she shared the beauty that was within. Till she learned it must be hidden. Now, she waits! No tears to shed, no laughter to hear. Everything good is gathered ~ in there. No one knows what she waits for. Maybe, not even she. Maybe a day when she might find, courage to open the door, and leave the key behind? Maybe someone good will see. All that she was meant to be. But, till then she guards the door. Never asking for anything more. Who is strong enough to see, The girl who hides behind a golden key?
